Luke LaManna: 我对查尔斯·曼森与CIA的关系进行了深入调查,揭示了曼森家族谋杀案背后的秘密。曼森在1969年指挥其追随者实施了多起谋杀,目的是引发种族战争。我认为曼森可能是美国政府更大计划中的一枚棋子,CIA可能参与了曼森家族的谋杀案。曼森在1970年代以其疯狂的末日预言吸引了大量追随者,他的‘Helter Skelter’理论是一个陈旧的叙述。 Tom O'Neill: 我被邀请为《Premiere》杂志撰写关于曼森谋杀案30周年的文章,但在调查过程中发现许多明星拒绝谈论曼森案件,这让我怀疑有更多内幕。我与曼森案件的前检察官Vincent Bugliosi交谈,但未能获得新信息。我开始调查前洛杉矶县警局侦探Preston Guillory,他曾参与曼森案件的调查。曼森在Spahn Ranch的活动得到了警方的默许,甚至包括非法性行为和毒品交易。曼森在Tate谋杀案后的一周内,警方对Spahn Ranch进行了大规模突袭,但并未逮捕任何人。曼森能够多次违反假释而不受惩罚,这背后可能有更强大的力量在运作。曼森在谋杀案发生前得到了警方的保护,这让我怀疑背后有更大的阴谋。曼森的假释官Roger Smith在Haight-Ashbury诊所参与了药物研究,曼森可能也参与了这些研究。我发现曼森案件中的官方叙述与警方报告存在重大出入。我认为曼森可能被用作某种实验的一部分,而Haight-Ashbury诊所是这一实验的核心。Haight-Ashbury诊所的主要资助者之一是CIA的前线组织。Haight-Ashbury诊所的安非他命研究项目文件在曼森被捕后被盗,这让我怀疑背后有更大的阴谋。我得知Haight-Ashbury诊所的创始人David Smith曾将曼森用作药物研究的测试对象。我怀疑David Smith可能为CIA进行药物研究,并与曼森合作,研究如何通过药物控制人类思想。我的调查已经超越了杂志文章的范围,可能成为一本书。我的调查可能会得罪许多人,包括曼森的假释官Roger Smith和David Smith。我认为Haight-Ashbury诊所是曼森从小混混转变为大规模杀手的关键。我怀疑CIA的MKUltra项目可能影响了Jack Ruby和Charles Manson的暴力行为。 Preston Guillory: 曼森在Spahn Ranch的活动得到了警方的默许,甚至包括非法性行为和毒品交易。曼森在Tate谋杀案后的一周内,警方对Spahn Ranch进行了大规模突袭,但并未逮捕任何人。突袭的官方理由是曼森涉嫌经营偷车团伙,但Guillory认为这很荒谬。曼森在谋杀案发生前就已经是警方的重点关注对象,但为何没有阻止他? Roger Smith: 我在1960年代担任曼森的假释官时,认为他相比其他嬉皮士显得相对正常。曼森并未参与任何药物研究,他只是偶尔来诊所进行假释会议。 David Smith: 我否认曼森参与了任何药物研究,他只是偶尔来诊所进行假释会议或为追随者取药。我否认诊所发生过盗窃事件,也不知道安非他命研究项目的文件去向。
